A couch and personal belongings in the second-floor unit were consumed by the flames, which were mostly extinguished by the building’s sprinkler system, Battalion Chief Frank Seidel said.

Seidel called for extra units to respond to the fire scene to assist crews there, and firefighters were able to quickly put out the remainder of the blaze. The flames were contained to the one apartment. Seidel said.
